check it out they reprinted the beatiful art from Thre spider in book format. Published in Lion in the sixties I think. storys are pretty nifty too. this artist inspired the like of dave gibbons and those guys I reckon.

u sound very excited by it. It is indeed a splendid book. You might also be interested to know there's also a Steel Claw collection in the same format. Although before the nostalgists get too frantic, I hear the Dan Dare volumes are now suspended so the market for such titles isn't the "hundreds of thousands" someone on another thread claimed.

where or how did you hear dan dare novels were suspended as i have just bought the steel claw,spider and charleys war novels and was planning on getting dan dare next.i emailed titan sugessting they should do a wider range of graphic novels like doomlord,billys boots and other classic footy stories and themed releases from the funnies such as evil eye and creepy car etc. from whoopee! in say a horror theme,cos it would be good for the kids of today to read the greats we read as kids.

Sorry but don't expect a huge line of UK reprints. I'd be surprised if there was Spider or Steel Claw vol 2s.
